After each use, reattach the electrodes to their protective plastic film. Store them in a cool, dry place. Replace electrodes when they lose their adhesiveness or show signs of wear, typically after 15-30 uses depending on skin type and care.
3. Battery Life
To prolong battery life, fully charge the device regularly and avoid completely draining the battery. If storing for an extended period, charge the device every few months.
